Squeaky Orthotics

Squeaky Orthotics occur because of friction from the device in your shoes. Some very simple solutions is to lubricate. Apply a generous amount of talcum powder under and over the device or rub a candle around the edges.

If that doesn’t work try these alternatives:

  • Apply duct tape or moleskin to the underside of the distal end of the orthotic. The tape reduces the abrasion friction of the orthotic against the insole, eliminating the squeak.
  • Another great way to stop the squeak and deodorize your running shoes at the same time is to simply put a dryer sheet under the device.
